Situated amongst picturesque rolling hills, this country property looked out onto an unused and tired garden. An existing rock wall cut through the space, creating two levels so the design sought to connect these levels with long grass steps that pulled the eye to the views beyond.
A mix of perennials and grasses were used to create drama at their peak. The color palette was kept simple focusing on pink, mauve and purple with a sprinkle of white.

At BWLA, we are passionate about great design. Being able to create a space for someone that reflects who they are, but also enhances the way they live, is what inspires us. Our gardens need to perform in so many ways. Whether they are an escape from the business of life, a place to entertain and be social, or to produce food to eat and flowers to cut; they need to fit seamlessly into how we each live every day.
We understand that the success of our work relates to how well the garden speaks to the architecture of the house, but also how it respects and blends with the landscape beyond. Working on gardens from courtyards to acreages, from coastal to rural and city properties, we love the challenge of working in different environments, different cities, and different climates. Each site has its own story to tell and we feel privileged to discover and tell these stories.
